Smoky Red Pepper Hash Browns

Con Poulos

Our trick to preparing these hash browns for a crowd: individual patties that are baked instead of fried. Make them up to 2 hours ahead and reheat in a 350-degree F oven for 10 minutes, or until warmed through.

Directions

In large bowl, fold together all ingredients. Divide evenly into 12 mounds on prepared cookie sheet; flatten into patties. Spray tops with nonstick cooking spray.

Bake the hash browns for 15 to 20 minutes, or until golden brown on the bottoms. With thin spatula, turn the patties over. Bake another 15 minutes, or until brown on the bottoms. Serve immediately, or make up to 2 hours ahead and reheat in a 350-degree F oven for 10 minutes.
